How can the administration argue Gitmo is a
terrorist recruiting tool while they accidentally DRONE 50 innocent
civilians to death?
IN ISIS CONTROLLED SYRIA
McClatchy Newspaper Chain:
U.S. airstrike in Syria may have killed 50 civilians
GAZIANTEP, TURKEY —
A U.S.-led coalition airstrike killed at least 50 Syrian civilians late
last month when it targeted a headquarters of Islamic State extremists
in northern Syria, according to an eyewitness and a Syrian opposition
human rights organization.
The civilians were being held in a makeshift jail in the town of Al
Bab, close to the Turkish border, when the aircraft struck on the
evening of Dec. 28, the witnesses said. The building, called the Al
Saraya, a government center, was leveled in the airstrike. It was days
before civil defense workers could dig out the victims’ bodies.
The U.S. Central Command, which had not previously announced the
airstrike, confirmed the attack Saturday in response to repeated
McClatchy inquiries. “Coalition aircraft did strike and destroy an ISIL
headquarters building in Al Bab on Dec. 28,” Col. Patrick S. Ryder said
in an email.
Now I am not going to argue we should kill ISIS, in fact I am in favor of killing more, more often.
I am merely pointing out the stupidity of the stubbornness in this
administration which cannot find any consistency in BOTH its ideology
AND the application of the ideology.
The people in Gitmo are POW’s without an army to be POW’s from and
should be considered released after 10 years of NO INCIDENTS, or we
should stop recruiting terrorists by killing innocents (good luck with
that)
The facts are that we recruit terrorists by EXISTING.
This is the USA.
The people, not God, are ultimately the sovereign here.
And THAT is your terrorist recruiting tool.

To quote John Kerry, that's one hell of a pinpoint operation!
" ... which cannot find any consistency in BOTH its ideology AND the application of the ideology."
Wrong. This administration is walking a very delicate line between its ideology, and the culture and values of the American people. One thing is their belief, and the other the limit of what they can do without exposing themselves completely.
